I've never been on Mission: Space. For some reason, we missed that one on our one previous trip. My 7 year-olds love outer space, but we really don't have a tolerance for roller coasters, Tower of Terror, etc. I want this to be a wonderful, not terrifying time for them. Do we try Mission...

Now, I'm envisioning Huey, Duey, and Luey jumping up and down in the car with excitement, inadvertently clobbering Donald the Driver with every third turn, screaming, "Are we there yet!!!!!?????" Big thank you!

A very kind thank you for taking the time to help me ensure I had clear directions. Driving with two little ones makes me anxious, period. :) Clear directions help much more than you probably realize. :)

I don't know if it's merely an urban legend or fact that driving from Universal area to MK and AK resorts is very confusing or not. But I know I'll feel more confident if I have clear directions on how to travel from the Universal area where we are staying to MK and then to the All Star Music...

I read the sticky about tickets, but still a little unsure if what I wish to do is okay. Can someone please respond? We have a resort package staying onsite with 7 days MYW tickets. I would like to pick up my tickets before our resort stay, but then I also wish to later add days to my...

Thank you -- and thank you for being so gracious in referring me to the thread. I hadn't even thought about the posted threads, but you are right, they usually are quite thorough. I appreciate that Guest RElations doesn't necessary need his history. I just thought including his history...

I'll be taking my two children to WDW in a few weeks and would really appreciate any tips for what I should ask for and say in regard to a GAC. One child has low muscle tone that required continuous therapy for 5 1/2 years to help him reach developmental milestones. We stopped for a little...

I think that was us. :) I flew out of Chicago Midway with my daughter who has had multiple anaphylactic reactions to traces of 4 foods, including peanuts. The flight attendant watched me wipe off every surface with wipes that my daughter might touch and then sit with 4 Epi Pens and albuterol...

Every time I have told a Southwest gate agent that I need to wipe down the seat area for my daughter's disability, I've been handed a blue jacket allowing us to pre-board. My daughter's disability that necessitates me wiping down all surfaces she may contact is life-threatening food allergies...

We were overcharged on a copayment for an office visit. The provider admits we were over-charged, but simply refuses to refund our money. They tell me just make some extra (totally unnecessary) appointments to "use up" the credit. I told them I don't want to, and have asked repeatedly for the...

Ugh. I hadn't even considered downed power lines and trees. We do live in the Knoxville area, and I found the news report you referenced. The ice is expected to remain on the roads for Saturday. What really scares me is that southern Tennessee, which is a mountainous region that I would...

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and suggestions! I lived near the Great Lakes for about 15 years. Schools never even closed. When I relocated to the South a few years ago, I was completely non-plussed by a few falling flakes and started out in my car anyway. I'd driven in...

My children received a very special opportunity to participate in an overnight space camp at the NASA Space Center. BUT NOW, the entire state of Tennessee through which we would have to travel to get there has significant ICE and snow forecasted for Friday. I'm thinking of leaving on...

Hi, I'm a priceline and Disney newbie. I'm totally unfamiliar with the Orlando area. Can someone please tell me what zones I should consider for bidding for a hotel for our Disney stay? Much thanks!

This is why I love, love, love the Disboards! I am a tech-neophyte with no knowledge about how to get what I want -- a devise that lets me access the internet while traveling -- within a brief time I have a slew of people offering savvy tips! A very kind thank you! The Disney helping, happy...

A big thank you! I'm excited to check into these options.

I humbly admit that I'm not a strong technology user. I don't normally access the internet with any devise other than my desktop computer. But in planning our trip, I'm thinking I really would like to be able to access the internet for priceline, directions, reviews, etc. What...

I have 7 year-old twins who are so excited to have a a trip to Disney AND Star Wars Weekend coupled together! This will be our very first time experiencing Star Wars Weekend. I understand many people buy the limited edition merchandise, but our focus will be more the experience than the...

I took our weekly rituals, such as Happy Meal from McDonald's after speech therapy and dance class, lunch at Panera after science class, and calculated the price per month and the price per year. I then showed the kids and myself that by skipping that "treat" we would pay for the hotel or the...

I have twins that were serial runners. I'm planning to take them to WDW in May and really don't feel that concerned about doing it on my own. But I would get the running away habit stopped before attempting to do so. I would sit down for a frank discussion about how dangerous running away...
